TÜMAD MAKES ITS MARK AT EBRD’S ANNUAL MEETING
The European Bank of Reconstruction and Development (EBRD) included a special panel discussion focusing on the investment outlook in Turkey
at its 27th annual meeting held in Amman, Jordan, on May 8 -10 last year. During the panel discussion, the panelists assessed and informed the
audience about the potential contributions made by economic participation models implemented by companies investing in different sectors in
Turkey to social development and competition, giving examples of best practices aimed at enhancing the efficiency of the private sector in that field.
Kıvanç ÖZER, Head of the TÜMAD Planning and Budget Control Department, attended the panel discussion as a speaker and as the representative of
our Group, which has developed one of the best practices in our country, and one of the few of its kind in the world in the field of social and economic
participation in the mining sector.

During the discussions, ÖZER shared information on the training projects that we are carrying related to our gold mine investments in Lapseki at
Çanakkale province, and in İvrindi at Balıkesir province, as part of our goal to contribute to the socioeconomic development of the region and the
community. He also explained our goals in that field, the competitive advantages to be gained in the sector and the challenges faced in practice, as
well as past experiences and plans aimed at overcoming such challenges.

The construction of Turkey’s first mining vocational high school, undertaken by our Group with particular focus on the provision of training in mining
technologies, and the added value that this investment will create in the sector and the region, attracted significant interest, and was appreciated
as one of the highlights of the panel discussion.
